There is a ton of aftermarket Cobra replicas out there but they have an offset for a regular foxbody rather than the Cobra. The wheels are on the Cobra are pushed out further to the corners of the car with longer axles for better handling. If you put the aftermarket ones on a Cobra they will stick out about an inch.

It always seemed silly to go to the trouble of pushing the wheels out to the corners to improve handling but then put the car on a narrower wheel. LOL, but that's 90's tech for you.

Almost every single time I took my 93 Cobra out, someone would ask me if I wanted to sell it. I had people follow me home to ask me if I wanted to sell. And every time at a gas station someone would say something about it, either asking to buy it or they always wanted one when they were in high school.

They are neat cars and I really enjoyed owning it for the most part. I was just nervous about taking it out anywhere that I couldn't watch it the whole time because the cars tend to be stolen quite abit.
